|
| From your league team page, you can do many things: |
Choose a Co-Captain
Co-captains have league website administrative rights, so they can help coordinate matches and report scores in the captain's absence. Club pros may serve as co-captain. |
| 1 |
Navigate to your team page and click the yellow "Edit Team " tab near the top (this tab will only appear if you're logged in). |
| 2 |
Click on "Change Co-Captain" |
| 3 |
Type in co-captains Last Name, First Name and hit yellow "Search" button |
| 4 |
Find the player and choose "Select" |
| 5 |
Back on the Team Information page, hit the blue "Save" button. |
| |
| Add Players to your Roster |
| Players must be registered on a roster before competing. If they're not on the roster, it won't be possible to enter their match scores. |
| 1 |
Navigate to your team page and click the light yellow "Manage Roster" tab near the top (this tab only appears if the captain is logged in). |
| 2 |
Find players by entering Last Name, First Name. Remember to add captains/co-captains to the roster. |
| 3 |
Players who are not current US Squash members must renew now so that you can add them to the roster: go to Membership Information and follow link to the US Squash Membership webpage. If you are unable to locate the player, it means they are not a member and must join before you can add them to the roster. |
| 4 |
If the player is subbing in for your team (i.e., officially registered on a lower-level team), then you must still add that player to your roster. (See below for Sub guidelines.) |
You can also remove players from your roster. Once you click on the "Manage Roster" tab, you'll see a garbage can icon next to each player's name. Clicking on this icon will remove that player.
Note: Teams must have at least seven players registered on their roster by October 12, 2011 in order to be eligible for the season. At least six of those seven players must be unique to the team -- i.e., not sub from a lower-level team. |
| |
| Designate Players as "Subs" |
A player may sub in for a different division, provided he's played only three times for the higher-level team. Once he has played a fourth match for the higher-level team, that's the only team he may play for going forward. See Rules page for more details. NOTE: Subs must be added to the roster by the time of the match. |

Navigate to your team page and click the yellow "Manage Roster" tab near the top (this tab will only appear if you're logged in). |

A 4.0 player may "sub down", until she's played four matches at the 4.0 level, at which point she may only play 4.0 going forward. |
